Karter is a safe food packet opener with the blade tucked away within the housing, away from the reaches of the fingers.

The design of the kitchen pack opener was inspired by the popular 70’s game Pac-man. Its design had arisen from the need to create a cutting utensil that is high on safety yet simple to use.

The use of a surgical steel blade within the housing means that it would not require any sharpening as long as it is used for its intended purpose, which is to cut only plastic or paper packaging and freezer bags.
